He has held his present position for 14 years.

LAST YEAR ALUMNI, friends and business firms made nearly 11,000 contributions, ranging in amount from a dollar to a major bequest of several hundred thousand dollars, he said.
"The bulk of my work," he said, "is administrative and concerned with all of the things that serve with private support at the University, such things as scholarships, loan funds, land acquisition and buildings.
"Twelve buildings have been built in the past 10 years with private funds in whole or significant part," he added.
Mr. Youngberg was born in Osage City, and entered KU as a freshman fn 1935.
HIS FIRST POSITION with the University after graduation was that of economics instructor in the School of Business. During the early part of World War II he worked on military training programs at KU in an administrative capacity.
"Then I put on the Navy blues for three years," said Mr. Youngberg. He was a Navy lieutenant until 1946
